In her 16 years as a Psychiatric-Medicine Physician, she has seen that most of her high profile clients have very few safe spaces on which to land. She empowers her clients to get the tools to achieve success beyond success… How to smash through career and personal plateaus. How to embrace and own advancing age and fading popularity. How to transform mental exhaustion into energy and excitement. And how to solve the emptiness of ‘having everything’. The reality, however, for many of these elite achievers, can be very different from the public’s perception. Their true flesh-and-blood humanity is often washed-out by the bright lights of their fame. They are amazing success stories to be sure, but they are also human … And that’s where Dr. Hawthorne comes in.

The plan … To revamp her online presence, launch her newest book Vibrant Living, and launch a safe space for potential clients to connect and be empowered to live a vibrant life.
